-qemu-img amend to adjust backing file (since 5.1)
-'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
-
-The use of ``qemu-img amend`` to modify the name or format of a qcow2
-backing image is deprecated; this functionality was never fully
-documented or tested, and interferes with other amend operations that
-need access to the original backing image (such as deciding whether a
-v3 zero cluster may be left unallocated when converting to a v2
-image).  Rather, any changes to the backing chain should be performed
-with ``qemu-img rebase -u`` either before or after the remaining
-changes being performed by amend, as appropriate.

-qemu-img backing file without format (since 5.1)
-''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
-
-The use of ``qemu-img create``, ``qemu-img rebase``, or ``qemu-img
-convert`` to create or modify an image that depends on a backing file
-now recommends that an explicit backing format be provided.  This is
-for safety: if QEMU probes a different format than what you thought,
-the data presented to the guest will be corrupt; similarly, presenting
-a raw image to a guest allows a potential security exploit if a future
-probe sees a non-raw image based on guest writes.
-
-To avoid the warning message, or even future refusal to create an
-unsafe image, you must pass ``-o backing_fmt=`` (or the shorthand
-``-F`` during create) to specify the intended backing format.  You may
-use ``qemu-img rebase -u`` to retroactively add a backing format to an
-existing image.  However, be aware that there are already potential
-security risks to blindly using ``qemu-img info`` to probe the format
-of an untrusted backing image, when deciding what format to add into
-an existing image.
